“Trying to peer through the dank tropical night that was palpable as it pressed its thick warm blackness in upon the yacht… The cry was pinched off short as the blood-warm water of the Caribbean Sea closed over his head…” (Page 19) Rainsfordreveals and important character trait by trying to keep an alert out when he is swimming the “The Ship Trap “ island for safety. But, little does he know that a General named Zaroff is not very nice.
“Some wounded thing, by the evidence a large animal, had thrashed about in the underbrush; the jungle weeds were crushed down and the moss was lacerated; one patch of weeds was stained crimson.” (Page 22) Zaroff reveals an important character trait by being very skilled at aiming and shooting at one object with a 22 pistol. His behavior shows that he doesn’t care about other things and people’s life.
